check out these little beauties - perfect as alternate figures for warriors of Gondor's provinces or even Dale/Bree/Rhovanion.

Those spears are pretty handy!
Too bad a lot of the models aren't shown yet, they look cool.

Some of them are a bit static, but they're so well detailed that I really want some of those. I even consider them to be perfect for Rohan and it's provinces! I see some good Farmer & Peasant convertions in lots of them. Gosh, I'm really tempted to buy a set...

Damn, they're really nice. I dont really mind the poses, however I am wondering how well they'd scale in with the GW mini's. They look amazing but it wouldn't help at all if their way bigger.

From my experience and the minis I have most historical minis are around 28mm scale so should fit quite nicely in the Lotr scale which varies between 25 and 28mm scale.

Ditto...I was thinking the same thing.

Those are really good minis - I am not worried about the dynamism of the poses; they look 'right' for Rohan, probably Rhovanion and a lot of Eriador too (rather than the 'Wars of the Roses' Arnorians from GW. Thanks for sharing Dag - looks like Backlog goes up yet again...

Good detail, but I find that the proportions are horribly askew. The heads are HUGE on the unarmored ones, and their limbs, especially their arms, are very short. The only ones I liked are the Infantry command and the Gedriht command. They are nice. I must say that LOTR minis are much better when it comes to proportions. The only others that Ive seen with consistent and correct proportions when it comes to historical/fantasy minis (besides GW) are Ebob and Tom Meier.
